Screenshot of How I am blogging the IndieWeb way

Ooh, it looks like Bridgy Fed now has support for at-mentions. Thanks @snarfed@indieweb.social!

I'm not convinced on the idea of POSSE, at least for stuff like this little micro post. I get it for other stuff but, to me, this (ie: Mastodon, Twitter, etc.) should be ephemeral. Realize not everyone agrees on this. I'm good with that.

My WordPress debugging - Thinking out loud...

I have 2 #WordPress blogs on subdomains WWW & AMF (see profile) almost identical in structure (95%).
Been testing a lot around #ActivityPub and #IndieWeb: new plugins, new interactions... And:
- AMF runs smoothly.
- WWW (older) has a few hiccups...

Been trying to test/debug/troubleshoot for some time now, removing all plugins etc.
Had to change theme (from 2020 to 2023) and that solved a few things (AMF uses 2020, WWW is now on 2023).

#Wordpress is joining the #Fediverse, making it possible for people to follow Wordpress blogs right from your Fediverse accounts. But what if you have static-site generator based #blog? Use the excellent (and free) Bridgy Fed service https://fed.brid.gy by @snarfed! For example, you can follow my blog at @abhinavsarkar.net@abhinavsarkar.net, made available on fediverse using Bridgy Fed. #indieweb

Last summer I did a complete rewrite of my website* and one thing I really like about it is I can now write blog posts and build them into a GitHub PR way in advance and then I can publish them from my phone by merging the PR.

It’s fun doing “reposts” from your actual site.

Had to still manually add a Repost block, though, and tweak—as in: clear—the remote page’s title. Takes … more than a click.

Looks okay on the blog, great in my feed reader, and pretty cool on Mastodon, too.

And parsed #microformats look correct: https://xray.p3k.io/parse?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjan.boddez.net%2Fnotes%2F004a3bd657&pretty=true

The trick is nesting the `.e-content` inside the `.h-cite.u-repost-of`.

I use #gutenberg’s `InnerBlocks` to do so. #WordPress

Toying with the idea of having my website layout based on text art. The base will be actual text in a pre tag, and then the actual contents of the page would be in an iframe. Thoughts?

"Open source, community-owned software [...] offers a remedy to the deep rooted issues of opaqueness and stakeholder imbalance in closed-source software, but it is not innately cozy. That is an added quality resulting from an intentional design towards that specific end."

i follow a ton of blogs via my RSS reader, but i noticed that most of those blogs are written by (a) men and (b) from Western countries, mostly the US and UK.

now i'm looking for more diverse blogs i can add to my RSS reader.

i'm mainly interested in technology, the web, design, literature (especially sci-fi, fantasy, and horror), video games, and music. but i'd be happy to follow anything that's well-written and interesting.

any suggestions, Fediverse?

Engage a Wider Audience With ActivityPub on WordPress.com

Great to see WordPress.com’s support for ActivityPub. Following WordPress blogs from Micro.blog looks good, although @-mentioning Micro.blog from within WordPress isn’t working for me. I’ve been testing and reviewing the code, will make any tweaks I can so everything is compatible.

I don't get #IndieWeb. It seems like #ActivityPub but with a different name and reliant on cloud services.

Rebuilding my website from #hugo to #wordpress for better #indieweb compatibility and i realize I hate php.
